What do you say Doof?

Fury vs Usyk
You vs Me
John Fury vs Out of Shape, Balding Jew.

You up for it?

The losers are the ones who claimed that Fury was too scared to fight.
After the fight, biglennox, nightmareroy, TheGratest and yourself leaving would improve the forum.

You bottled it.

It wouldn't surprise me if the peaceful folks at The Blue Oyster banned him for this violent act.

Joe Egan calls John out again.

If you're convinced Luke the drug cheat is going to win, take the bet,

I strongly fancied Usyk to win this for a while, but lack of VADA testing and the shape Fury appears to be in is making me less confident.

Tyson Fury interview.

Does anyone know which commission is commissioning the card this weekend? I assumed it would BBBoC but cannot see anything under their schedule online?

No way in the world Fury wins this fight.

I'm pretty sure there is, but testing doesn't start until the fight is signed. Not announced, not advertised, signed.

Either way, it won't matter, Fury's gonna be all over him, break him down and stop him.

Hold a gun to my head for a prediction and I’m going with Usyk all day long, and have felt that way for quite some time.

But Fury is still a big awkward lump, who won’t just stand around waiting to get twatted. It’s fair to say his chances can only have improved since the original fight date.

They have some bullshit Clean Boxing Program, but that falls miles short of the proper VADA testing, which it doesn’t look like they have for this one.

I don't expect Fury to survive to hear the final bell.

I've got a strange feeling that Usyk is going to take center ring and really push the pace from the third round.

I expect a robbery. Fury is at the Canelo stage of entering each fight with a 3 round head start

I don't see that happening unless Fury is really shot. Despite the fact he's not always looked in the best shape, Fury has good powers of recovery, and has always had very good stamina. The only way Usyk stops him is if either Fury's punch resistance has completely gone, or he runs out of gas badly, and hard to see either happening.

I think it will be a fairly close one, and could be difficult to score, if Fury turns it into a mauling scrap.

I'm going for usyk though he may be on the end of a debatable decision.

I suppose Fury might end up just losing every round for a shutout, but probably at this stage he should be getting stopped.

Usyk will win 9 rounds or stop him.

Well, hopefully we're a few days from finding out.

I'd be surprised if he was stopped, Usyk's not heavy handed at heavyweight, and he doesn't usually go for the stoppage.

One thing is, there's no dog in Fury, he certainly won't capitulate meekly.

I've no idea how this will play out, I keep changing my mind!

100% agree. Fury has shown a lot of guts and grit. He'll give it his all, but he's a high mileage vehicle. He's just been decked by a zero fight novice. Usyk's going to dominate this fight.

I think the Zero fight novice is a little misleading, I mean NGannou knows how to punch.

I think more the worry, was the fact that Fury's timing looked really bad, he didn't seem to be able to find the gaps for his own shots, and was off the pace the entire fight.

I remember a quote by holyfield, I think it was one of the fights he had after Valuev, near the tail end of his career and he said something along the lines of "I can still see the gaps, but I just can't pull the trigger quick enough, and by the time I do, it's gone."

That's what happens to fighters as they age, especially ones who haven't lived the life.

What's the odds on a draw? Worth 20 quid I'm sure
